The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' Jennifer Affleck Is Pregnant

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jennifer Affleck is preparing to welcome baby number three!

The reality TV star and her husband, Zac Affleck, shared the exciting news on February 11. “I was a few days late, and while it was a surprise, we both had a feeling there was another baby waiting for us,” Jennifer told People. “We were very excited. There were a lot of emotions after a very crazy year!”

The Afflecks have been in the spotlight since the release of the first season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, with their relationship drawing both criticism and support. The couple, who met and married at 18, are already parents to son Lucas, 19 months, and daughter Nora, 3.

Jennifer shared that both kids are “beyond excited” about their growing family. “Nora has been hoping for a little sister, and I can tell she really wants it to be a girl!” While Jennifer and Zac plan to wait until delivery to find out the baby’s sex, she admitted she has “a strong feeling it’s a girl.”

The 25-year-old YouTuber also revealed that this pregnancy has been her “hardest yet” due to pregnancy symptoms, work stress, and more. “The first trimester was really challenging mentally and physically; I experienced all the symptoms—nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and mood swings. It’s definitely been chaotic, no doubt about it,” she shared.

“I thought having two kids back-to-back was tough, but this has taken things to a whole new level. With the stress of work, motherhood, and the challenges that come with pregnancy, it’s been a lot. On top of that, I had some strong cravings and aversions—all I wanted was pho and limes with salt!”

Despite the challenges, Jennifer is grateful to have a special companion on this journey—her sister. “My sister also recently found out she’s pregnant after many years of trying with IVF, so we couldn’t be more excited to embark on this journey together,” she said. “Both of our parents were also absolutely thrilled to hear the news. They love being grandparents, so this was the perfect surprise for them.”
